As a replacement for the canceled eurovision song contest (ESC) 2020, stefan raab and the television station prosieben are planning a "new, free european song contest". It is to be held on 16. May 2020 in poland under all "current legal requirements and (…) requirements of the health authorities" and "free european song contest" heiben.

This had originally been the date of the canceled ESC. Raab wants to produce the show, as the station announced on tuesday (31. March 2020) announced. The entertainer had often shown a good nose in the matter of ESC in the past years. The last german winner of the eurovision songcontest was lena meyer-landrut, who stefan raab interviewed in his own casting show discovered.

The verdict of our tester:

The ebermannstadt pastor zlatko kidjemet has proven that the church still has something to say to people today. He vividly explained the words of the reading, impressively explaining the christian message. Meanwhile: the front pews remained empty. Youth worshipers? Missing. This dilemma can be seen particularly clearly in the number of altar servers, who years ago assisted the pastor in fours and sixes. This time, just one female altar server attended the service. Do the services offered by the catholic church fail to meet the needs of adolescents and young adults?? If so, it is a "phased out item". Small ray of hope: the seniors went to communion almost without exception, celebrated holy mass with everything that goes with it. But the question remains: quo vadis church?

Susanne deuerling "franken helau" 2020 will be staged by the faschingsgesellschaft steinwiesen in upper franconia. The artists from the frankenwald present themselves with wit, dance and lively live music. In addition to the speeches of local heroes such as robert porzelt, wolfgang baumann and moni reibig, the audience can look forward to a colorful show and gardetanze.

When monika reibig enters the stage, she doesn't really need to say anything at all. Already her sight sparks a so called "laughflash". Why this is so? The female actually nobody. But you can't get past moni reibig at carnival in steinwiesen and the surrounding area. Since 2008 her performance is a fixed part at the butten evenings. It doesn't matter if she made her debut as the "prince of last year" or not was or as a beer queen, farmer, cleaning woman, as a confessional maala, rocker, mother flodder, doctor or as a blond angel from barm daherkommt, the applause storms are her already before sure.

Jorg woltche takes a deep breath. Then he raises his hand, opens his mouth and sings out loud: "come to me, my god!" He indicates the pitch of the melody with his horizontal palm, which bounces up and down on the imaginary staff lines. Children from three to seven years old sing along powerfully. Also, when he suddenly switches to english: "kumbaya, my lord!" The church music director at the erloserkirche in bad kissingen is probably one of the most distinguished gospel choir experts in protestant bavaria – especially when it comes to young talent.

"We'll do the kindergarten version first", says woltche to his choir assistants. Nadja liehr, alexandra jany, valerie and angela stichler sit with the gospel sparrows, so the gospel spatzen, as the smallest in the bad kissingen gospel choir universe are known, in the circle. They nod, and woltche takes a firm grip on the keys of the small piano in front of him. "God's love is so wonderful", the children sing at the top of their lungs, the classic children's and family song. After a short verse, woltche switches back to english and sings "rock my soul".

For the festive opening of the anniversary celebration of 1111 years of pfaffenhausen, which was connected with the cultural series saalemusicum, the guests came to the banks of the saale in the early afternoon of saturday, at first a little hesitant. The festival site below the sports center was only slowly filled with guests, where the adult brass class played under the direction of andrea wagenpfahl. Patron, district administrator thomas bold (CSU) tapped the keg. When the beer suddenly started flowing, mayor ernst stross (SPD) rushed to his aid.
"Music and saale have always belonged to our village pfaffenhausen", the local representative karl-heinz gluck (CSU) pointed out the variety of culture there. Pfaffenhausen was first mentioned in a document as a property of echternach in the year 902. Gluck took a closer look at the eventful history of the present-day district of hammelburg.
"The saale continues to love", mayor ernst stross (SPD) emphasized the connecting elixir of life for the neighboring villages. Fresh supply for the saale water was also available from the pfaffenhausen slope. "Neighborly help with mutual support brings us together", stross drew his conclusion from the historical considerations. Stross thanked the hard-working residents, who presented themselves with around 30 stations, for their exemplary voluntary work in the run-up to the festival over the past year. Pfaffenhausen, like all the other towns in the region, has a rural character, confirmed bold. However, in a special position as a direct neighbor to the federal armed forces, he emphasized. There is the good connection between civil and military important. Over the decades, many members of the german armed forces had settled in pfaffenhausen. "I have not yet experienced an 1111 jubilee, but I was happy to take on the patronage of this event", so bold.
Congratulations from neighboring fuchsstadt were expressed by mayor peter hart (CSU / UWG). "Not only the saale but also a two kilometer long community border connects us to a good together", he recalled. Together with kuno holzheimer, the artistic director of the music academy, the speakers love the symbolic flob of the saalemusicum to water.
Well attended was the marquee, where on saturday afternoon, despite the opening of the sidewalls, the temperature was still sauna-like. Obviously this did not bother the musicians of the army music corps 12 from veitshochheim very much. Under the direction of lieutenant colonel burkhard zanglein they also played southern melodies in keeping with the weather.

The middle ages
About 150 meters further downstream, several groups of history buffs had settled down to spend their free time exploring the middle ages (about 500 to 1500 n. Chr.) live in their tents. There was also a salt merchant whose children were making bracelets out of glass jewelry. From the area fuchsstadt, gauaschach and hammelburg came the open group custor castelli (guard of the castle). In the scorching summer heat, they had made themselves comfortable in the shade under their open tent. "I have often been a guest at the trimburg", confirms michael albrechtsberger from hammelburg. "We present ourselves with medieval life even in schools", betrayal.
"We are also concerned with the sense of life", betrayal christian heine from gauaschach. So a lived medieval weekend without TV, radio, computer and cell phone offers the opportunity to get away from everyday stress and to slow down. "Getting out of the world you usually have around you!", is the motto. Handmade woollens and leather articles also contribute to the cosy atmosphere for mark egert from elfershausen, antje phillitt from breitenbach and marie-luise beichel from hammelburg.
Not heib enough a blacksmith from the hessian lich had a good time. Its smoldering forge fire lovely picturesque the smoke rise. In 1453, the year of the high middle ages, knight eduard mews from wiesbaden was alive. Carefully he cleaned his knight's helmet, which would rust without care. Helmets and swords often come from the czech republic. Likewise the about 15 kilo heavy chain shirts, if they are not made in months of manual labor by themselves. Around 30,000 to 40,000 chain links made of iron wire have to be joined together properly.
Prince reinhold wahler had already been a guest at the trimburg several times for the medieval festival there. His trimburger knighthood was also present at the 1111th anniversary celebrations in pfaffenhausen. "We know each other in this scene from northern bavaria, hesse, rhineland-palatinate all the way to the eifel region of north rhine-westphalia.", wahler confirms. About 50 medieval groups are to be found there. A maximum of two events in one summer month was the maximum yield for the leisure knights.
"The family doesn't always go along with it", wahler has already observed. "When I get out of the car at the venue, I step onto the ground of the 13. Century", wahler agrees with the indulgence preacher (jurgen prell). There will be no coffee machines or gas stoves for food preparation. There the wood fire is consequently ignited. Even the weather was accepted: "when the floods hit pfaffenhausen, there was a plan B", so wahler.

The letter of a dutch translator, who deals with the "open letter the first meeting with the vivisection opponent ernst von weber was held on 22 march 1880 in the villa angri high above naples. March 1880 in the villa angri high above naples, where wagner, thanks to the generous support of king ludwig ii. From 4. January to 7. August 1880 lodged with his princes. "As I have seen in R. That’s what I’m talking about", writes his wife cosima "he says: ‘these are indeed stirring signs, and i could rejoice over some things, but the sorrow over the whole does not quite allow the joy over the individual to arise. I expect results now, and they can’t come in germany, it is judaized and professed’."

In cosima wagner’s diaries, hardly a week goes by in which their anti-semitism is not unmistakably expressed. This happens especially frequently in march 1869, when the second version of the so-called "judenbroschure" is published appears. That wagner wrote the inflammatory pamphlet entitled das judenthum in der musik, which he first published in 1850 under the pseudonym K. Freigedank’s publication in two installments of the neue zeitschrift fur musik, which was reissued almost twenty years later under his name as a pamphlet with additional and detailed explanations, is certainly the more serious case: with the more effective pamphlet, it became clear that wagner was a man of conviction on this point.
